yuhmee

-The original problem was spyware called "yuhmee", it redirects most of my Internet Explorer URLs to a search site full of advertisments.
I've run the lastest updates of both 'spybot'-which didn't help and 'adaware'. At the moment I'm not sure if I still have the same problem, but I would like to get my registry checked just in case. There also seems to be a problem with my host file.

Dear Pandah,

As you noticed, you've come to the right place, with great people, great experts, and great advice.
A month ago I also experienced simular problems with that nasty YUHMEE.
Somehow I "stumbled" onto this forum, and it has been one of the best lucky punches I had for years on the net !

*** That's why I shout a firm: THANK YOU YUHMEE.com ! ***

Why?

Because if it wasn't for their annoying spyware activities I would never had been served with so much expert help and knowledge already; I would never had met these fantastic people here!
Besides that, this has given me a treasure of links on this -alas- very important subject /threat and all that comes with it.

I'm still learning every day - and I love it!

As a bonus you'll meet new people, some of which I already consider new online friends.

That is why I hope you return, so we can welcome you as a member. CU @ Wilders!
Don't be shy...look around, ask whatever you want: We all have to start somewhere.
You'll find your way - like we all did.

ENJOY : It's a feast.

Take care Pandah.

Regards,
slammer

(Only downside may be....lack of sleep, and possible 'addiction'. But there's help for that too, here + plenty of other pleasant "nut-cases" around. )
